Finally, it’s summer in California. But we are working hard to make the network happen.

R&D:

All our DApps now will work using Metamask. To change keys, vote, and see a list of validators will be no need to keep a blockchain node on a computer. And in future, it will be possible to use them on the phone.

We are trying to launch development test net (0xC0FFEE) but still have some problems on Parity side. It is good that we found those bugs in this stage and not in the future, for example, a blocker bug https://github.com/paritytech/parity/issues/5907

Looks good. Just went to check out some of the dApps. Looks like we’ll need to connect to the Oracle network in order to interact with anything in the “oracles network” section right?

Also, was trying out some of the other dapps, like “proof of phone” – really good stuff. UX is very solid. Interested to see the “proof of location dApp, have a buddy that is really excited about location verification stuff”

I feel like this project has more work behind it than most ICOs. On that subject though, the fee to validate a phone is like $30 – is that intentional or just that you made it so long ago that at the time .1 ETH wasn’t that much.

After looking at the code, it looks arbitrary. Like you just receive whatever amount is sent:

Yes, we will provide a custom Metamask client and when the network will be mature, we will add our networks to the original Metamask client. [quote=“johndangerstorey, post:2, topic:61”]

Thank you, this app won ConsenSys prize on the last year Consensus Event in NYC.[quote=“johndangerstorey, post:2, topic:61”]

Would love to hear your buddy’s ideas about proof of location. Could you please invite him to the forum?[quote=“johndangerstorey, post:2, topic:61”]

It’s based on one year ago price and it was $1.00 that time. Lol, now it’s too expensive. The good news is that we will remove that fee from the next version of the oracle. A user will only pay to execute transaction on the network.[quote=“johndangerstorey, post:2, topic:61”]
So the .1 ETH really isn’t a requirement at all except to sway the owner to actually add them is that right?

You are right! It wasn’t a requirement. More like a donation.

Swag looks good

Can I send it to ConsenSys address in Brooklyn?
What’s your T-shirt size?

I’ll try to add him. I shared the link with him and was going to let him initiate talking if he wanted to get involved somehow, but I can do a little prodding. I visit the Brooklyn office every once in a while, but am actually based out of Utah. The shirt I’m totally down for (Large) – but I don’t really do too much with the sticker stuff. Exciting news about the testnet
